Tie me up
Tear me down
Your words burn into me
You take my soul out of me
Now how do you feel
To see me so low?
Happiness is hell
You make my blood run cold
And you claw at my face
Peel the skin back
Torture me
Keep me from sleeping
Because dreams destroy
And I am the next one to go
And I am the last one to know
I am all that you fear
Yet I am the one in misery
Take me
Just take me
Take me away
From this pain

this one really explains how im feeling right now.  you hit the nail on the head.  

And I am the next one to go
And I am the last one to know
I am all that you fear
Yet I am the one in misery

this is me...this is sooooo me!!!  in the words of a great band by the name of LIT, "You make me come, You make me complete, You make me completely miserable."  great line and i do believe its saying almost what your poem is saying.  great read.

aimee
